A win for the bad guys. I don't think so. At Iraq Envoy's Wake, Annan Vows to Complete Work NYT August 23, 2003 By REUTERS nytimes.com Filed at 1:54 p.m. ET RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Reuters) - In a moving and personal tribute, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan on Saturday vowed to complete the work of Sergio Vieira de Mello, the U.N. envoy to Iraq killed in Tuesday's bomb blast. ... ``His dying wish was that the United Nations Mission there (in Iraq) should not be pulled out. Let us respect that. Let Sergio, who has given his life in that cause, find a fitting memorial in a free and sovereign Iraq,'' Annan said after embracing Vieira de Mello's 83-year-old mother. ... Yes, some UN employees will leave. But many others will remain. Provisional offices have been erected in containers and tents as the UN building is no longer usable. The WHO, UNICEF and other organizations remain fully staffed. reuters.com sify.com Edit - de Mello's last words: 'Don't Let Them Pull the U.N.
